The Angel of Christmas - by C G Thompson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The stories you are about to read are fiction with some fictional characters. However, not all of the characters are fictional. You will find real history and actual places woven into these tales. The main characters in all of these stories are angels. Angels are mentioned at least 273 times in the Scriptures. The number of angels is incalculable. They are created spirit beings which are invisible unless they wish to be seen, and normally, that is in human form. They, like us, have free will. There are several different types of angels with different assignments to carry out. They all report to God, their Father.

Today, it seems many Christian people only desire to believe in a God of love and not a God of vengeance and punishment. Yes, God is love, but He is other things as well. People seem to mistake God's long-suffering for a change from His Old Testament persona to one that makes Him seem like a hippy of the 1960s. The Bible says that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. I can't visualize Him sitting on His throne making peace signs. He wasn't a flower child in the Old Testament, so neither is He today.

This book shows both a God of love and a God of justice. In this collection of stories as well as in the Bible, angels are sent to carry out His justice upon evildoers. In both this book and the Bible, angels are also sent to show His love for His children.
